James Houston & Will Frank - Jungle in Heaven

Black collision I lay my mark down
It's in my blood
Can't take the nigga out
Me
The one I trust
Can hang the rope I can't
Tie myself
But I'm not dying today well another temp
Gone
Another day wasted I'm steady pacing

Everything I face with ankle bracelet
Tryna embrace it then
I found out he died before he seen parole
Tell me that he died in that park alone
Dealing with depression his wife and kids at home
You take the food out they mouth
Happiness going trigger happy

Cause you told the nine
They expecting to see daddy walk through
That door from that nine to five
Minimal wage I limit our minds with limited
Time
But tomorrow's not coming for us
Another brother died and
Another mother crying ehh
Too many tears we shed but we strong
So we find and
The code we live by
I think about quitting my job and say forget you all
And my conscience get involved and say stick to the law
The ones you don't follow I follow my own path
I pave my own way
And look the barrel in his eyes
You better just pray to the lord
In that moment I don't die
I'm coming for you all

Take me to that place and make me
Who I'm supposed to be
Awake me
Open my heart and save me
From who I've come to be

Man in the mirror I'm seeing it clearer
The image is bigger
And bringing me nearer
In the end I will ascend
I will
I will ascend
Ohh
But will you go high though
Or stick with the low blow
That life is a no go
But how will you know though
I guess that just depends

On how you perceive the future
While looking at the past
I don't know what you're used to
But eating that apples bad

And we can't dream the future
But we live day by day
A jungle in the heavens
Chariots on the way
On the way
Yea
Ugh
Mmm

I was everything you wasn't
Some you could've been
Some we would've been
Swinging from every jungle gym
In this jungle in heaven it's pleasant
My light my fluorescent
I'm checking space in eternity

I raise the stakes and say grace
For what we gonna eat
I hold my plate with shame
And perceive what we gonna leave
Left overs was kept over
Flesh over soul in this jungle
I wrote my lies
Tombstone
On this monumental

I feel the skies
My brother my kinfolk
Lowly swinging on this family tree
When I hang this rope
Holding on to hope
Freedom bells ring down my throat

Jungle in the heaven
Chariots on the way
Yea
I said I said chariots on the way
On the way
Let me ride
I said let me ride
Lowly swinging
